The City of Turner has received funding for transportation enhancements to Delaney Road. Marion County has agreed to design the project, acquire right-of-way, and provide both Project and Construction Management services. In addition to these services, since it is a County road, Marion County will fund an asphalt overlay of the project.

The Project will complete a missing section of sidewalk and bike lanes on Delaney Road between 3rd Street and 7th Street in Turner. Construction will include new six (6) foot wide sidewalk with curbs, storm drainage and bike lanes for approxiamately 900 feet on both sides of the street. The Project will also include grading and surfacing at the existing railroad crossing to make it fully accessible for pedestrians and bicyclists.

Funding

Federal-Aid Surface Transportation Program Urban funds for design, Transportation Enhancement funds for construction, an approxiamately 10% City contribution, and Marion County Road funds for the final overlay.

Estimated Total Project Cost is $1.1M and includes engineering, right-of-way, and construction.
